Option "New duplicated session..." can't change the username

[lars18th]

Hi,

How to reproduce this bug:

• Open KiTTY and without using any stored session then open a new session using only the address (so don't use the username@address formant in the Host entry).
• Then connect to the server, typing the username and the password.
• When you're connected then select the option "New duplicated session..."
• And now change the address to another server... but in this case, to a server where you want to use a different username (for example, in the first case you use your regular name, and now you want to connect as admin or root).
• When you'll be asked for the authentication data inside the second connection, in this case the previous username will be in use and you don't have the option to change it.

From my point of view this is not the expected behaviour. For sure, if we use the format username@address for the first connection, then in this case the username is already established. But when we type the username, then in this case, any new duplicated session will need to ask for the username as well.

So, I hope you want to fix (or change) the current behaviour. Thank you for your continous effort improvind this amazing fork! Regards.

Hi,

Perhaps this is the expected behaviour. If I select the option "New duplicated session..." and I connect to another server in which I've the same username and password, then the connection is automatic. Great!

So, in fact, this is the expected behaviour. But the problem is: The user knows this default behaviour? Futhermore, would it be possible to provide a method to change the username before connecting?

Thank @cyd01 for KiTTY !
